JUNE 2006 in FINLAND
The Finnish Afghan Hound Club held its 40th Anniversary Show in Helsinki and I was delighted to judge the bitches with my co-judge Michael Dougherty from the USA judging dogs. It was lovely to see Finland in the summer and to visit the Afghan Club's Agility training.

WINTER 2005 ~ A NEW FRIEND
The boys meet a new friend and member of the family. Timon is only a baby but can keep up with Kazbek and Doushman. He is a Silken Windhund and is owned by Natalia Shaverneva so he already thinks he might be an Afghan really.
A winter training session on a frozen lake. Kazbek made it to the trees in the distance shortly afterwards !

Kazbek and Doushman had a good Xmas and New Year in Lapland. Plush and the other girls made the best of the snow in Kent.
